Notes

Brew Day/Pitch Temp = 64F, reduced to 58F after active fermentation was observed (approximately 8 hours)
Day 1 = 58F
Day 5, once 50% gravity was reached, begin raising temp by 2F per day until reaching 68F (approximately 5 days)
Day 10 = Final gravity, cold crash to 38F for 4 days
Day 12 = Fine with gelatin
Day 14 = Package and carbonate, 30 psi for 36 hours, reduce to 12 psi serving pressure
